Raspberry Patchouli

A blend of earthy, musky patchouli with warm, sweet vanilla and a tiny touch of lavender for a pop of floral. Deliciously patchouli! Feminine but with enough patchouli that it's into the neutral fragrance.

Each bar is around 4oz, this is a hot process soap.

INGREDIENTS: 
Distilled Water, Vegetable Oils (Cocos Nucifera (Coconut), Elaeis Guineensis (RSPO Palm), Olea Europaea (Olive), Brassica Campestris (Canola), Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower), Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot Kernel), Ricinus Communis (Castor Seed), Sodium Hydroxide, Fragrance & Essential Oil, Glycerin, Mica.

What's in it and why-

Distilled Water- Important because tap water often has minerals that can bind to the soap differently.

I use vegetable oils instead of animal fats. The reason is because I personally feel they make a better bar of soap, and they don't have a greasy smell like some tallow or lard bars do. Basically I don't have to add extra fragrance to get the animal smell out. (Not all oils are in each blend, please check ingredient list).

Coconut Oil (Organic)- May help moisturize, relieve inflammation, and help your natural skin barrier stay in tact.

RSPO Palm Oil- Palm is a great oil for dry and sensitive skin. It is also an oil that has been divisive. This is why I use RSPO Palm- when grown sustainably, it generates more pay, better working conditions, and gets more oil per acre than many other oils.

Olive oil (Sometimes Organic)- Rich in antioxidants and has been linked to improved skin moisture and anti-aging appearance effects.

Canola Oil- Contains a lot of essential fatty acids, which moisturize the skin. It's rich in Vitamin K, which helps keep the skin supple and smooth.

Safflower Oil- Said to have anti-inflammatory properties that may reduce redness and even be helpful to conditions like acne and eczema.

Apricot Kernel Oil- Very moisturizing, a great source of vitamin A and Vitamin E. This is an amazing oil for skin!

Castor Oil- Said to be great for skin, reducing puffiness, helping redness and acne, and fighting dry skin!

Sodium Hydroxide (Lye)- To make the liquids into soap! (No lye in finished product)

Fragrance and/or Essential Oils- To make you smell nice! (Most soap will not make you smell for a long period of time- it's not like heavily scented washes that "stick" a little more to your skin.)

Mica/Oxides/Titanium Dioxides- For color (I use synthetic mica made in labs- for ethical labor reasons, along with knowing each batch will be "the same").

Cruelty free Tussah Silk- Harvested after the silk moth has emerged, it's animal friendly! This adds a little more slip to your soap, and helps give a little bit more a luxurious feel to your bubbles.
